'I think we are at saturation point,' a Stalybridge councillor said objecting to the large shared house proposal
Plans to convert a ‘Victorian villa’ into a ten bedroom shared house in Stalybridge have been approved despite concerns the area is ‘saturated’ with HMOs. Tameside’s planning committee has given the green light to plans for a six bedroom, three storey house on Stamford Street to be converted into a house in multiple occupation .
“On Stamford Street there is an HMO of ten bedrooms and as councillors we have had to deal with a lot of issues around bins, fly-tipping and rats. From that point of view I think we are at saturation point at this place. Agent for the applicant, Mr Montgomery, Lewis Berry said the development was ‘appropriate’ due to the size of the building and its location.
Panel member Coun Doreen Dickinson said: “Stalybridge town centre is just full of industrial bins. I am absolutely sick of it, I’ve fought it for years. Coun Adrian Pearce added: “As councillors in this area we’re having constant problems with people from parking.
